Quote from ShawnyMcKnight :
I doubt the credit expires but that could potentially be a long time without a PS5 since no announcement has been made.

A pro doesn't seem as necessary, no one is looking at the PS5 and being like, "man, these graphics are trash!" Sure, a console that can do RT well would be nice, but I'm not expecting 4k@120 anytime soon.
Bingo, want to keep playing on it until the end.

Is this a good deal? I sent my PS5 once for repair, and I am always afraid that it will go bad.

Now my PS5 doesn't have any warranty. I keep hearing rumors that the Ps5 pro will be out soon
I just sent my ps5 for repair. A week later they mailed me a refurbished unit. So I am also worried a little.

What exactly do I need to take? The console, controller, power cable and HDMI? Am I missing anything?
Charging cable for controller.

Traded in my PS5 today. Process was easy. They run tests to verify the controller buttons work and there is no stick drift. They also check the console can get on the internet and the drive works. Waiting for the PS5 Pro and will play my PS5 games on PC until then.

Good info.

This needs to be in the wiki for quick reference regarding the differences between the 2 models.
It does not generate less heat. Don't believe everything you read on the Internet.

It's slimmer, less obnoxiously large, runs hotter AND louder, and has two USB C Ports in the front instead of one Type A and one Type C. That's about it.

I did this trade in a few days ago. The slim PS5 is really loud compared to the original. You can Google this. I'm definitely disappointed in that regard.
Thanks for this. Hated the PS4 due to the noise so this is great info

It's not as loud as the PS4, but considerably louder than the original PS5.

This just seems like a complete waste of time and resources. My launch PS5 runs great.
I had a launch ps5, but around last summer, it had an issue with the hdmi port that I believe cost $130 or $150 to get it fixed.

I've had my ps5 since it launched - have there been any complaints about the slim? Might be a nice "upgrade" for a fresh console (not that I've had any issues with mine)
The slim models have never been an upgrade. The original has always been the best. The slims are cost cutting models.

If you are sensitive to fan noise don't do the trade. The second you start any game the fan ramps up and it's not pleasant.
Time to wait for the inevitable super slim!

Not exactly true. Ps3 slim was a big improvement from a reliability perspective. My launch ps3 overheated and died. Slim model has been working for 15 years.

my ps5 no longer reads blu rays and the laser needs to be replaced. Something that i plan on doing but its essentially the same price as this upgrade. wonder if they would accept my console.
Poor PS5, you must be that abusive to your PS5 for it to be in that state.
